Refrigerator

Abstract

A refrigerator is provided. In the refrigerator, a manufacture cost for a buffer device to buffer a shock generated when opening a home bar door, can be reduced.

1 . A refrigerator comprising:
 a main body provided with at least one of refrigerator compartment and freezer compartment in the inside thereof;   a door to open or close the refrigerator compartment or freezer compartment, the door having a predetermined size of opening part on one side thereof;   a frame surrounding an inner edge of the opening part;   a home bar door installed in the opening part, the home bar being pivotably provided on a front face of the door;   a pressurizing member adapted at a rotation center part of the home bar door; and   an elastic member provided to the frame, to provide a resistance force to the pressurizing member while the home bar door is open.   
     
     
         2 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the pressurizing member is provided on a rear face part of the home bar door. 
     
     
         3 . The refrigerator of  claim 2 , wherein the pressurizing member is provided at either end part of the home bar door. 
     
     
         4 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the elastic member comprises a compression spring or torsion spring. 
     
     
         5 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , further comprising a stopper coupled to a front face of the elastic member and contact the pressurizing member. 
     
     
         6 . The refrigerator of  claim 1 , wherein the pressurizing member is configured to pressurize the elastic member when the home bar door is opened, to cumulate a resistance force in the elastic member. 
     
     
         7 . A refrigerator comprising:
 a main body;   a door pivotably installed on a front of the main body;   a home bar door having a lower end part which is hingedly coupled to a front of the door;   a frame coupled to the door and having a hinge hole into which a hinge of the home bar door is inserted;   a pressurizing member provided at a lower end part of the home bar door; and   a resistant provided at a predetermined position of the frame corresponding to the position of the pressurizing member,   wherein the resistant is configured to restrict inadvertant opening of the home bar door, by interlocking with the pressurizing member.   
     
     
         8 . The refrigerator of  claim 7 , wherein the pressurizing member is a pressurizing face protruded from a back face of the home bar door. 
     
     
         9 . The refrigerator of  claim 8 , wherein the resistant comprises:
 a stopper contacting the pressurizing face; and   a compression spring provided at a rear of the stopper.   
     
     
         10 . The refrigerator of  claim 7 , wherein the pressurizing member is a cam inserted into a hinge of the home bar door. 
     
     
         11 . The refrigerator of  claim 10 , wherein the resistant comprises:
 a stopper contacting the cam; and   a compression spring provided at a rear of the stopper.   
     
     
         12 . The refrigerator of  claim 10 , wherein the resistant comprises a torsion spring contacting the cam. 
     
     
         13 . The refrigerator of  claim 7 , wherein the resistant is movable forward and backward in a state of being combined with the frame. 
     
     
         14 . The refrigerator of  claim 7 , wherein the resistant is formed of rubber material. 
     
     
         15 . The refrigerator of  claim 7 , wherein the resistant is an elastic member contacting the pressurizing member. 
     
     
         16 . The refrigerator of  claim 7 , wherein the pressurizing member is provided integrally with the home bar door or provided as an independent member.
